But to go back to the topic: Nikon does sometimes strike me as a "scumbag" company. They screwed early D90 adopters by not updating the video mode (no manual controls), NPS membership is very expensive (you need a couple of "pro" lenses, two pro bodies, a reference from an NPS member, and even then repairs are very expensive). Only the high end bodies feature metering with non-cpu lenses (crippled camera firmware).

Meh, I can't say I like Nikon as a company. Love the cameras, but the company...nope :/

As a company, I don't actually find Nikon too bad. So far, my experience with their customer service has been excellent. I've used their "Live Online Help" service multiple times (You can find it here if you're looking). My only gripe would be that their products are, well, extremely expensive. I was looking at battery grips for my D7000 a while back, and while 3rd party ones generally run about $50-$100, the Nikon ones cost $300! It's to be expected for a company to charge more than a product is worth, it's how they make a good profit, but sometimes I get frustrated at how much their products can cost.
